Sonia and Anita, two sisters living in India, have been blind since birth, but a simple eye operation makes it possible for them to see their mom for the first time. The nonprofit organization 20/20/20 provides free operations to these sisters–as well as thousands of other people in developing countries. These procedures empower people in impoverished communities to create better futures. In this short film, Blue Chalk Media shares the sisters’ poignant story and captures their initial experiences after the bandages come off. What a gift this is for these 2 girls, and their family!video taken from /www.thisblewmymind.com/

Many businesses are suffering even as the ordinary people grapple with daily bread-and-butter issues in a weak market. But incredibly, all these concerns do not seem to bother the hate mongers who are hell-bent on sowing disunity.

IT’S incredible how some Malaysians can dedicate so much of their energy on issues, or more precisely non-issues, that really bring no benefit to the country.

This country has already got enough religious and racial bigots, whether they are politicians, retired politicians, half-baked politicians or ordinary Malaysians.

These are the characters who have no ability to make any meaningful changes to Malaysia except to generate some news in the portals.

I really feel pity for this pathetic lot. A few of them have excelled in their work, despite their somewhat limited academic qualifications, and should be remembered for their contributions to society. Instead, in this new phase of their life, they re-emerge sordidly as racists.

One personality who tried to pass himself off as an academic amazingly wondered why he has not been accorded any respect by moderate Malaysians. Well, maybe the real reason is he has been creating headlines for his outrageous remarks instead of his research work.

But the man at the centre of the storm now for making silly remarks is Gerakan’s Johor delegate Tan Lai Soon, who implied that Indians, Chinese and Malays are “pendatang” or immigrants.

At the party’s 43rd National Delegates Conference on Sunday, Tan chastised Umno members for calling Chinese and Indians “pendatang” and said that Malays were no different as they too were “pendatang” who came from Indonesia.

Tan said only the orang asli and natives in Sabah and Sarawak could be considered the original inhabitants of the land.

What’s wrong with this guy? By using the “pendatang” label in this manner, he is no different from those who call the Chinese and Indians as such.

And, seriously, what’s the point of making that remark and what can he get out of it except to generate more hostility and, worse, give the bigots more grounds to up the ante with their hate rhetoric?

The Gerakan central working committee, after an emergency meeting on Monday that was called in response to complaints by 14 of its party members, has rightly decided that Tan would be suspended. He has been issued a show cause letter.

Gerakan deputy president Datuk Dr Cheah Soon Hai reportedly told reporters on Monday that the party condemned the remarks made by Tan.

“It is not the party’s stand, we are all Malaysians and no Malaysian is a ‘pendatang’ or an immigrant.

“All Malaysians who are born here are Malaysians. I think that if a Malay called a Chinese ‘pendatang’ it will hurt and vice versa,” Cheah said, adding that “we have taken note that Tan has retracted his remarks and apologised for it”.

I am sure the Gerakan delegates do not want members from other parties to bring up such an offensive remark at their AGMs.

Such an amateur anthropological claim has no benefit and does not serve the interests of the nation. It is precisely this trend of unrestrained statements coming from all sorts of people, including at forums that we least expect, that is worrisome.

Likewise, there is no reason why the vernacular schools, which have been in existence for over six decades, should continue to be an issue.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has already given his assurance that these schools remain protected under the Federal Constitution, and in the 2015 Budget, RM50mil has been allocated for Chinese schools.

The controversy, in the words of Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin, has been “canned” and certainly there is no need for anyone to reopen the issue, especially senior ranking ones.

With two months left of the year 2014, we can say that it has been a horrible year for Malaysia.

To borrow the Latin phrase made famous by Queen Elizabeth II in her 1992 speech, it is befitting to describe 2014 as “annus horribilis” for Malaysians.

The slew of issues and non-issues continue to grab the headlines in a year when we have suffered terribly from two air crashes involving our Malaysia Airlines.

The market is still weak, judging from the quarterly results announced by many public-listed companies. In short, many businesses are suffering even as the ordinary people grapple with daily bread-and-butter issues. And the outlook for 2015 does not look too good either.

Businesses now in the midst of making their budgets for next year are taking a hard look at how they can perform better next year.

Most are predicting a tough year ahead with cuts on their operating expenses, which would have a painful impact for many, especially the wage earners, with the inflationary rate expected to go up.

But incredibly, all these concerns do not seem to bother the hate mongers. How can we blame them, as they are idiots after all, with little intellect to grasp the economic issues ahead?

We can, and we should, come together to face the challenges ahead in an unpredictable year.

How can we convince investors, in the wake of competition from our neighbours, to put their money in Malaysia if they keep hearing about the silly antics of these self-appointed heroes of their race and religion?

We should not waste our time on these political wannabes and minnows whose only talent is to create disunity among us.

“It
was by the mercy of Allah that thou wast lenient with them (O Muhammad), for if
thou hadst been stern and fierce of heart they would have dispersed from round
about thee. So pardon them and ask forgiveness for them and consult with them
upon the conduct of affairs. And when thou art resolved, then put thy trust in
Allah. Lo! Allah loveth those who put their trust (in Him).” (Quran 3:159)
(Pickthall translation).

This verse from the Quran should be the guiding light for us
Muslims in our day-to-day interactions with both fellow Muslims and
non-Muslims. In short, we must stop being nasty to each other and others. We
need to follow our Prophet’s personal culture and make his personal culture
ours—to practise empathy, love, care and forgiveness.

I met Syed Azmi on numerous occasions this year. He was quick to
volunteer and happy to help when we shared with him a campaign idea to do
charity. I found out soon that doing charity, helping the poor is very close to
his heart. One may say that he has made it his calling. He organises “free
market activities”, facilitating a platform where individuals and organizations
can give away food, clothes, household items and other things to the poor.
While many other young Muslims spend their weekends lepaking and
having fun, here we have an exemplary young Muslim who works for the poor,
answering the Quran’s call on believers to do charity.

I hope the religious authorities, especially JAKIM, can see that
Syed Azmi had good intentions in organising the “I Want to Touch a Dog” event.
From his point of view he did all that is needed to do, getting approval
through MAIS and making sure a religious teacher was present to give
guidelines, although perhaps his religious expert was not JAKIM approved. It is
“stern and fierce of heart” to accuse him of wanting to challenge the ulama or
intending to insult Islam or to abuse him by saying, for instance, that he has
“worms in his head” instead of trying to understand him.

The Quran tells us to avoid excessive misgivings or suspicions
about another. Indeed, such excess can become a sin (Quran 49:12). There are
even those who threaten to take his life and call him an apostate. I hope JAKIM will advise these overzealous Muslims accordingly. How I wish Syed Azmi had
worked with JAKIM on this campaign from the very beginning. I will unpack this
idea at the end of the article.

I also oppose those who express their disagreement with JAKIM by
hurling insults at the religious body and their leaders. Insulting the
religious authorities by name calling and mocking them does not make one’s
argument any deeper or more Islamic. How we Muslims treat each other,
especially how our opinion leaders handle disagreements with others, will play
a big role in ensuring respect for Islam or otherwise. Religious leaders
throwing insults and rough words at each other can be far more insulting to
Islam than Syed Azmi’s dog patting campaign. There are already enough Muslims
killing Muslims in Muslim countries. We in Malaysia can do better.

Where do we go from here?

I plead with JAKIM and all our religious authorities not to
treat or see Syed Azmi and those like him as criminals. I truly hope that JAKIM and our religious authorities can work with and through lay Muslim leaders like
Syed Azmi in making Islam relevant to modern society. Mentor and coach them;
don't chastise or turn them away. Take the dog patting campaign. Not all that
Syed Azmi said was wrong. He is right about the hatred many Muslims have
towards dogs and from this lack of understanding many do cruel things to a
creature of God. This is against Islamic teachings.

Righting the wrong

If Syed Azmi can work with JAKIM we can right the wrong and work
well within the Shafie traditions. It will be great if JAKIM can help Syed Azmi
and those like him by spreading the Prophet's teachings about kindness. In the
case of dogs, the Prophet, referring to a prostitute who gave water to a
thirsty dog, said Allah had forgiven her for her act of kindness. On another
occasion, when the Muslim army came across a female dog and her puppies while
on a march, the Prophet posted a soldier near her with the order that the
mother and puppies must not be disturbed. These demonstrations of kindness
towards dogs by the Prophet would not only help Muslims be kinder towards them
but also feel closer to Islam.

Furthermore, with modern communications and globalisation
facilitating contact between Muslims from different parts of the world, there
is an urgent need to help young Muslims make sense of why the Maliki school
says dogs are clean while other schools say they are najis mughallazah (impure
to the extent that physical contact requires ritual cleansing). Young Muslims
may question if this is a disagreement between schools of jurisprudence or
between radically different interpretations of Islam itself. Please do not
sweep these inquiries under the carpet. Please deal with
them. JAKIM has the expertise.

As it is, JAKIM has many knowledgeable officers well trained in
the various areas and I know a few personally who are well rounded, caring, and
deep in knowledge. I am confident that JAKIM can practice the Quranic bidding
that I quoted at the beginning of this article: Be “lenient” towards them and
and avoid being “stern and fierce of heart” so that the young will not
“disperse” and shy away from Islam. I pray to Allah that JAKIM will “pardon”
Syed Azmi and “ask forgiveness”for him and “consult”
with him and those like him “upon the conduct of affairs”.

I end this article with another quote from the Quran as a
reminder to all, including my humble self.

“And
if two parties of believers fall to fighting, then make peace between them. And
if one party of them doeth wrong to the other, fight ye that which doeth wrong
till it return unto the ordinance of Allah; then, if it return, make peace
between them justly, and act equitably. Lo! Allah loveth the equitable.

“The believers are naught else than
brothers. Therefore make peace between your brethren and observe your duty to
Allah that haply ye may obtain mercy.

“O ye who believe! Let not a folk deride
a folk who may be better than they (are), nor let women (deride) women who may
be better than they are; neither defame one another, nor insult one another by
nicknames. Bad is the name of lewdness after faith. And whoso turneth not in
repentance, such are evil-doers.

“O ye who believe! Shun much suspicion;
for lo! some suspicion is a crime. And spy not, neither backbite one another.
Would one of you love to eat the flesh of his dead brother ? Ye abhor that (so
abhor the other)! And keep your duty (to Allah). Lo! Allah is Relenting,
Merciful.” (Quran, 49: 9–12)

I would like to congratulate and
thank Syed Azmi for organizing the “I
want to touch a dog” campaign. His
effort to bring fellow Muslims to get to know and not fear dogs is timely. I
have written about the subject in my book, The Quran and I. In the sixth
chapter, I shared about Pedro. I append the story below.

I hope the religious authorities will see his effort
positively and encourage more such campaigns. You can see the happiness Muslims
share during that event, both young and old.

I know
Syed Azmi and he is one of those rare good hearted people who have chosen to
spread joy and happiness in the world. This event is just one of his
initiatives. Syed Azmi wants us to remember a very important reason why the
Quran was sent to us,

“We did not
bestow the Qur'an on thee from on high to make thee unhappy” – Quran 20:2

Pedro was my first canine friend. Not
that I did not have any experiences with dogs before Pedro, but he made a real
impact on my life. He changed my entire framework about man’s best friend. I
was 16 when I knew Pedro.

Growing up in a Muslim home, we were
taught to fear and loath dogs. Most of us did not want anything to do with
them. In fact, many if not the majority grew up totally terrified of them. We
were taught to hate this beautiful God’s creation. This is an irony because
they are ‘man’s best friends’. They help us guard our house, tend our sheep,
catch baddies, sniff out drugs, assist the blind to ‘see’, help in search and
rescue operations and they keep us company.

Most adult Malay-Muslims
cannot give a real reason as to why we cannot keep dogs. Some say that we
cannot touch them when they are wet while others stress on the saliva being
filthy. Some say they are filthy in totality.

My Umi’s main worry is that
when you have dogs at home, “malaikat
tak masuk rumah”. This has become one big stress for Umi and one
big irritation for my sister Kak Ani because my sis and family keep dogs – my
mom all sad and dramatic about angels not visiting her grandchildren – meaning
Satan will run wild in the house!

When I am being a good
son, I try very hard to convince my Umi not to worry because the angels are not
shallow beings and some canine won’t stop them from caring for little children.
I try to persuade her that even without the angels it’s okay because God is
always very near to us as the Quran said that,

“NOW, VERILY,
it is We who have created man, and We know what his innermost self whispers
within him: for We are closerto him than his neck-vein” - Quran 50:16.

And at the heart of it
our best protector is God, not the angels,

“Nay, God is your protector,and He is the best of helpers” - Quran 3:150.

But when I am being cheeky I will tell
my Umi that, “Kalau tak mau
mati, simpan anjing dalam rumah, malaikat maut tak boleh masuk!”. Hehe!
But most time I try to be a good son J.

None of all this confusion is Quranic
but the misunderstanding push many Malay-Muslims into acting cruelly towards
dogs. A Muslim friend of mine who lives in a farm at Janda Baik had his dog
catapulted to death with ball-bearings by unhappy neighbors. My friend’s land
borders the jungle and keeping a few canines will keep away wild animals like
panthers, wild boars, Pig-tailed Macaque, musang,
etc. The dogs play an important role in keeping not just his cows, sheep and
poultry safe, but also his 7 kids and wife.

It is not unusual that
if you are a Muslim and you rear dogs, other Muslims will even question your
faith. Sigh ….

The Quran on the other hand says animals; dogs included are a community like us
humans.

“There is not an animal (that lives) on the earth, or a being that
flies on its wings, but (forms part of) communities
like you. Nothing
have we omitted from the Book, and they (all) shall be gathered to their Lord
in the end.” - Quran 6:38

And the Quran tells us to
train with our best knowledge other animals like the way we train our dogs,
making our connections with dogs as an exemplary behavior,

“They ask you what is made
lawful for them. Say: (all) good things are made lawful for you. And those beasts and birds of prey which you have trained as hounds are
trained, you teach them that which God taught you; so eat of
that which they catch for you and mention God's name upon it, and observe your
duty to God. Lo! God is swift to take account”. - Quran 5:4

If you are a
Malay-Muslim reading this and is still not convinced, there is another story in
the Quran about man and his best friend. It’s an account about a few youths
whom God had increased in His guidance and gave strength to their hearts and
they are friends to canine.

“[And now] We shall truly relate to thee their
story: Behold, they were young men who had attained to faith
in their Sustainer: and [so] We deepened their consciousness
of the right way. - Quran
18:13

“And thou wouldst have thought that they were awake, whereas they lay
asleep. And We caused them to turn over repeatedly, now to the right, now to
the left; and their dog [lay] on the threshold, its
forepaws outstretched. Had thou come upon them [unprepared],
thou wouldst surely have turned away from them in flight, and wouldst surely
have been filled with awe of them” - Quran 18:18

Here are some canines I
knew.

Blackie – Behind my house
was a remnant of a Chinese New Village and Blackie was our friend Bok Teik’s
dog. Blackie was forever sleeping and yawning and occasionally tried to snap
the flies hovering over him with his jaw.

Tohtonku – A dog I knocked with my
Honda CupChai C70 as I turned into Mt Erskine from Gottlieb Road. I was thrown
off my bike and Tohtonku was growling in pain. His best friend a Chinese boy
about 11 years of age rubbed his chest while calling his name “ Tohtonku!
Tohtonku! Tohtonku! …” about a minute later the canine was up and running again
… phew!!!

Patches and Bright (a
combination of Brown and white), two dogs at Nick my buddy’s house in late 70s
– early 80s who never bothered anyone.

Brandy –Nick’s current, a
blind dog.

Kafula – My sister’s
Rhodesian-ridgeback, a huge animal but totally gentle and protective, a
friendly breed. My niece Aisha used to drag Kafula by his tail when she was
still a toddler and pulled at his ears.

Miri Martina – Another one of my
sister’s dog – named after Miri the town they lived in for a couple of years.
The friendliest mongrel I have ever known. She is always excited to see you –
tail wagging and her body forming a U-shape as she moves nearer and nearer
towards you.

Nic – One of the fiercest
dogs I ever known who completely cannot get along with me. My friends Mano and
Beng named him Nic as per mechanic
as he is always sleeping under the car.

Charlie – Mano’s dog which seems to be on heat all year long humping
anyone's legs left unguarded.

Ga – Short form for Jaga - A female canine
Beng, Peng and I adopted during my final year at MU. We were housemates at TTDI
– at that time, there was a movie “Three men and a baby” but in our case it was
“Three men and a bitch”.

Michael – Ga’s male
companion. We named him Michael to irritate our chief tenant who goes by the
same name. I think the dog was insulted.

Change – A mongrel I took
care of when I stayed at Pandan Perdana. I named her Change as I really felt
that Muslims must change our attitude towards dogs. My friend Mano says that if
I ever kept a piglet at home, we will need to name the piglet Revolusi!

I thought I would tell you about
Pedro last. Pedro was Jennifer’s dog. They had two - Pedro the male one and
Pedrina the female. Jennifer, Kak Ani’s best friend and housemate were living
in Jalan Telawi area in late 70s and early 80s. Pedro in all other ways, looks,
size, mannerism, etc was like a German Sheppard except that he was completely
brown in color, from head to tail. He hardly made any noise or barks. In the
mornings when I walked to the bus stand, Pedro would walk alongside me. It was
very nice and you felt very safe to have such a canine friend with you. He
would sit and wait with me at the bus stop. Occasionally, throwing his
melancholic glances at me and if I smiled back he would actually wag his tail a
little. He could read your feelings. When I get on the bus, he would wait just
a little while looking at me and walked back home as the bus moved.

With all the robberies
and attacks in Kuala Lumpur, each one of us can do with a Pedro!

“ VERILY,
this Qur'an shows the way to all that is most upright, and gives the believers
who do good deeds the glad tiding that theirs will be a great reward;” – Quran
17:9

Sri Paduka Maharaja Durbar Raja I of Gemeron - King Merong Mahawangsa, founder of Kingdom of
Langkasuka-Kedah Tua (630 CE). The Kedah monarchy is believed to be the oldest
surviving royal lineage in the world.

Back to basics: Each Malaysian adult is in charge of
Unity.

The nation’s UNITY is the responsibility of each and every
one of us. It is not just the job of politicians, government servants and
non-governmental organizations.

We, the rakyat must take charge. We, the rakyat
must take responsibility. It is not enough to point fingers and ask the
politicians and government to change. We must change.

Let us explain.

Individuals form groups. How we, the individuals, relate to
each other through our daily interpersonal relationships characterize
society and the world we live in.

These patterns of relationships that we practice and
share with each other create our distinctive culture. This culture then
branches out to form structures, processes and the elites in our society – the
politicians, government servants, business leaders, artistes, doctors, lawyers
etc.

Thus, everything good or bad in this country starts from us
– the individuals.

Until we practice unity in our daily interactions, true
unity will remain as lofty slogans or tools for unsavory politicians to use
as and when they please.

Let us take charge of Unity.

At zubedy, our programs draw strength from shared values and
traditions. We believe that at heart, all Malaysians want good things for
themselves and for their Malaysian brothers and sisters, simply because our
nation cannot prosper as a whole if some of us are left behind.

Few people in the middle class really understand the mindset of the richest people.

After all, if they did, they would be among the top earners as well. We’ve all heard the remarks: Rich people are lucky, rich people had an unfair advantage, rich people are crooks, rich people are selfish, etc. These are mostly empty statements with little proof to back them up.

Yes, the rich think and act differently from everyone else, and the differences are as extreme as they are numerous.

Here are five things you probably didn’t know about the wealthy.

1. The wealthy are comfortable being uncomfortable.

Most people just want to be comfortable. Physical, psychological, and emotional comfort is the primary goal of the middle-class mindset.

The wealthy, on the other hand, learn early on that becoming a millionaire isn’t easy, and the need for comfort can be devastating. They learn to be comfortable while operating in a state of ongoing uncertainty. The great ones know there’s a price to pay for getting rich, but if they have the mental toughness to endure temporary pain, they can reap the harvest of abundant wealth.

It’s not comfortable for a millionaire in the making to forge ahead when everyone around her is negative, cynical, and unsupportive, yet those who can push forward are rewarded with riches for the rest of their lives. Make a list of the five things you must do today that are uncomfortable but will help you build your financial fortune.

Flickr/DellWealthy people have goals and plans to meet those goals.

2. The wealthy dream about the future.

Most of us grew up listening to stories of the good old days, when the world was a kinder, gentler place. The music was better, athletes were tougher, and business people were honest. This tradition of the masses is handed down from generation to generation while its purveyors have no idea how insidious and destructive it is. People who believe their best days are behind them rarely get rich, and they often struggle with happiness and depression.

The wealthy are future-oriented and optimistic about what lies ahead. They appreciate and learn from the past while living in the present and dreaming of the future. Self-made millionaires get rich because they’re willing to bet on themselves and project their dreams, goals, and ideas into an unknown future. Much of their planning time is spent clarifying goals that won’t be realized for years, yet they patiently and painstakingly plan and dream of what their future will look and feel like.

3. The wealthy are more confident.

The negative projections and derogatory labels placed on the rich are endless. One of the most common is that the rich are cocky, arrogant people who think they’re better than everyone else.

The truth is successful people are confident because they repeatedly bet on themselves and are rarely disappointed. Even when they fail, they’re confident in their ability to learn from the loss and come back stronger and richer than ever. This is not arrogance, but self-assuredness in its finest form.

The wealthy have an elevated and fearless consciousness that keeps them moving toward what they want, as opposed to moving away from what they don’t want. This often doubles or triples their net worth quickly because of the new efficiency in their thinking. Eventually they begin to believe they can accomplish anything, and this becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. As they move from success to success, they create a psychological tidal wave of momentum that gets stronger every day, catapulting their confidence to a level so high it is often interpreted as arrogance.

The investing legend shares the secrets to his success.

Warren Buffett is a true genius as he is able to simplify complex ideas into quotes that will stand the test of time. Warren Buffett spent his life dispensing advice to all who would listen, earning him the nickname of the Oracle of Omaha. In the 1960s, this advice came about twice a year in letters to investors in his investment partnerships. Starting a few years later, Warren Buffett’s wisdom was distilled through the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting and the annual shareholder letter, and in the past 20 years, Warren Buffett has become a household name through appearances on TV and interviews in magazines.

Read on for Warren Buffett’s best quotes on life, investing, and his top five insights.

On life

1. “You only have to do a very few things right in your life so long as you don’t do too many things wrong.”

2. “Should you find yourself in a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is likely to be a more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.”

A promise made in 2001

I intend to ADD VALUE to everyone and anything that I come to interact with and make the world a better place.

As this is an unending journey, I will never achieve my dreams … not in their fullest form. They are too far away in the idealistic world... but,

" The quest of truth will set you free, even if you never catch up with it".

I am one of those dreamers who have found a practical formula of living for today (compartmentalization) and try to achieve parts of my dreams a moment at a time, part by part. It is okay to die without achieving all the lofty dreams, as the spirit will be passed on to others, who are dreamers too.

I also plan to be rich, very rich! Not for the money but for the use of money as a platform to help me achieve my ideals. God willing, you will see advertisements in the near future communicating universal values and spirituality by ZUBEDY the Brand. (check out http://www.zubedy.com/) Encourage schools and libraries and sponsor the poor's basic needs of food, shelter and education.

I hope to live to a century or two with healthy living, modern medicine and God's permission. Lead a full life, have many children. But not necessarily sired by me. Travel the world to witness God's creation and be at awe with the creativity that greets us wherever and whenever we turn. I want to smell all the fragrance in the world be it the stink of the squatters in Mumbai or the pleasing scent of devotional flowers at a Balinese lebaran.

And to know that each experience has a purpose which is to ADD VALUE to the living, the dead and the unborn.

Let us learn about each other's religion, culture and way of life

We know too little about each other’s traditions, way of life and beliefs.

In fact many amongst us may not even know about our own spiritual traditions, scripture and core religious foundation. Most times we delegate our thinking to our religious teachers and later complain about how they go about doing their job.
